Police plead for Faith Hedgepeth information
By Jenny Surane
Editor-in-Chief
What scares Connie Hedgepeth
most about her daughters homicide
is the unknown.
Faith Danielle Hedgepeth was a
junior at UNC when she was found
dead in her Hawthorne at the View
apartment on Sept. 7, 2012. Chapel
Hill Police confirmed Thursday she
was beaten to death.
After two years and thousands
of hours of police work, the Chapel
Hill Police Department released new
details of its investigation Thursday
in a choreographed series of press
conferences in the hopes that some-
one would come forward with new
information.
A new timeline of Faith
Hedgepeths last night showed she
spent part of her last night at Davis
Library with her roommate Karena
Rosario. She arrived home to her
apartment, not long after midnight.
Shortly before 1 a.m. on Sept.
7, 2012, the two went to the East
Rosemary Street nightclub The
Thrill, which has since closed. They
left the bar at 2:38 a.m. and drove
home. Police believe Rosario left the
apartment again at 4:27 a.m. When
Rosario returned home at 11 a.m.
she found Hedgepeth on the floor,
leaned against her bed.
I think about that morning,
Connie Hedgepeth said in a video
plea to the public. Its all in my
head, I can imagine things happen-
ing to her. Its not settled. I dont
know all that happened to her that
night. I dont know anything.
An autopsy confirmed Faith
Hedgepeth was beaten to death, said
Chapel Hill Police Chief Chris Blue.
We have an excellent case, we
have lots of good evidence, Blue said.
We are absolutely convinced we will
solve this case. What we need to do is
connect that evidence to the killer.
Police have also asked the Durham
County District Attorney to release
all search warrants for the case today.
While collecting a sexual assault
kit, police said they recovered DNA
samples from semen, which matched
other DNA found at the scene.
It is our belief that the DNA
belongs to Faiths killer, Blue said in
a press conference Thursday.
During the press conference,
police also released copies of a note
found at the scene, which had the
words Im not stupid, bitch and
jealous written on a fast-food bag.
Police believe the note was written
by Hedgepeths killer.
These are the things we think are
most helpful to our case right now,
Blue said during the conference.
Police have collected and analyzed
A timeline of Hedgepeths
final night and her cause
of death were released.

Student Congress controls student groups budgets
By Langston Taylor
Assistant University Editor
Each student stands at the bottom of a
three-tiered classroom in Gardner Hall, look-
ing up at dozens of their peers. They represent
up to hundreds of students counting on them
to secure money for their club or team. Some
made promises they wont be able to keep.
A gavel pounds and the room quiets. After
a two-minute presentation, the Student
Congress Finance Committee begins to ask
questions. Do all your members have to go on
the trip? Could you raise dues by $5 per stu-
dent? What effect will you have on campus?
Methodically, each funding category
travel, lodging, publicity, office supplies
comes under scrutiny. Fifty dollars is cut here,
$200 there. Some are left untouched each
a win for the applicant. The committee agrees
on an amount, and the applicant sits down.
The whole process takes about ten minutes.
But the effects of the decision can last all
semester, especially when a club treasurer
walks away with nothing, like sophomore
Grant King, treasurer for the Sexuality and
Gender Alliance, did in January.
There are people relying on you, and
theyre going to have to make some serious
sacrifices, King said.
In spring 2014, Student Congress consid-
ered requests from 70 student groups, award-
ing a total of $151,640, according to its online
database. More than $217,000 was requested.
Twenty-two groups received all their
requested money, while 15 got less than
half. Small groups were hit especially hard,
with applications for groups of 25 or fewer
students receiving only 58 percent of their
requested money.
Senior Kamaira Philips has gone through
the process three times on behalf of Mind,
Body, Spirit Connection, a group that teach-
es students meditation and other methods
of stress relief, but she had a much harder
time this year than previously.
Philips was awarded more than $4,400 in
January to publicize her organization, hire
speakers and bring members to a meditation
retreat in Mebane. Her club wasnt able to

Work-
study site
revamped
By Kate Albers
Staff Writer
Freshman Marquitta Howard said her job
search would have been a lot harder without the
new interactive online system for finding federal
work study jobs at UNC.
I thought it was really cool because I was afraid
that they were going to be like, You need work
study. Go out, and find a job. Good luck, she said.
Howard said she was pleasantly surprised by
her options in the new system, which is available
for the first time this academic year.
They actually provide you with a long list,
said Howard, who got a job as a scorekeeper for
UNC Campus Recreation intramural sports.
They give you the pay rate. They give you a little
description about what the job consisted of.
The site is run by a third-party company that
provides personalized access to UNC.
Phillip Asbury, deputy director for the Office of
Scholarships and Student Aid, said the company
is required to update the system annually, which
he thinks will keep it from becoming obsolete.
Michelle Klemens, assistant director for UNCs
federal employment programs, said students pre-
viously used an online database where they could
only see jobs openings.
Theyd look on a database, contact supervi-
sors and set up interviews. So it was a lot of
walking around campus and emails and phone
calls, Klemens said.
With the new system, its still an online data-
base, but it actually has the capacity now that stu-
dents can apply to these positions online, and they
can upload resume and cover letter material.
Employers benefit from the site too, she said.
Supervisors can communicate with students
through the site. They can also make hiring
decisions through the site as well, she said. Its
actually a big change.
Asbury said in an email that students will
still have to take part in many of the traditional
aspects of looking for a job.
A system will go only so far in relieving the
stress involved in a job search, he said. The sys-
tem will be much more modern but much of this
process still involves human interaction between
employer and potential employee.
But junior Dylan Zanikos, who has worked as
an administrative support associate at the UNC
Injury Prevention Research Center since January,
found his job through the old system last winter.
This fall, he said he had to seek help from his
supervisor to navigate the new system.
The new system is not as intuitive as the old
one and is much more difficult to find, he said.
But Klemens said she thinks the new system
may decrease some challenges for other students.
Supervisors are still making hiring decisions
and students are getting settled into their jobs or
are still looking for jobs, but I think this is a good
indication that the system is effective and meet-
ing the needs of everybody involved.

Recent construction in the
quad to remove asbestos has
brought attention to the pres-
ence of the potentially hazard-
ous material on other parts of
campus, such as in residence
halls and class buildings.
According to the UNC
Department of Housing and
Residential Education, since
2009 seven residence halls
have been identified as having
surfacing materials containing
asbestos.
Rick Bradley, associate direc-
tor of housing and residential
education, said that students
living on campus should not
worry about becoming ill from
the asbestos found in their
dorms.
The asbestos is contained
and does not pose a health risk,
Bradley said.
In order to ensure the safety
of students living in dorms with
asbestos, Bradley suggested a
few precautions, such as refrain-
ing from scraping or attaching
items to the walls, ceiling or
pipes.
He also said to keep lofted
beds at least 3 feet from the
ceiling, which is residence hall
policy.
The key is to contain the
asbestos and to notify individu-
als as to the precautions that
should be taken, Bradley said.
Junior Kristin Tajlili has lived
in a residence hall each year
shes been at UNC. Two of the
dorms she has lived in are on
the list of buildings tracked for
asbestos.
She said she had not heard
about the issue of asbestos on
campus until the recent con-
struction in the quad, but she is
not concerned about it.
Tajlili said her only com-
plaint is that the University did
not tell her before she chose her
dorm.
I think it would have been
better to let everyone know
(about the presence of asbestos)
when applying for housing,
because we are paying a lot of
money to live on campus, Tajlili
said.

Hinton James and said knowl-
edge of the asbestos may have

H
ere at UNC, we have a healthy appreciation for rams. We
love them and with good reason. They have beautiful coats
and regal horns. And it appears that they also have an
appreciation for personal privacy a drone pilot in New
Zealand can attest to it. While flying his camera-equipped aircraft over
some scenic mountaintops, he found an unassuming ram. The poor
guy didnt know what he was in for. When the ram saw this intruder
approaching, he immediately reared back to charge and knocked the
camera out of the sky. Oh, yeah! Boo-ya! We highly recommend that
eveyone go watch the video. Seriously, it looks like what Rameses would
do if that Dook blue devil ever tried to get in his face.

MUSIC ITS A PROCESS
DTH/MITALI SAMANT
Soprano Louise Toppin was one of the instigators of the New Generation Project, part of the UNC
Process Series program. The projects goals include documenting African-American culture.
Soprano duo will
bring spirituals,
poetry to UNC
By Zhai Yun Tan
Senior Writer
UNC Department of Music chairwoman
Louise Toppin has sung spirituals all around
the world. And there is one question shes
always asked herself about these songs that
have roots in slavery: Why are people still
connecting to this music from 1865?
Her pursuit for an answer led to a col-
laboration with international opera singer
Marquita Lister.
Together, they created the New Generation
Project under the UNC Process Series pro-
gram. Their goal is to document African-
American culture and explore spiritual music
in a contemporary context.
I saw audiences who dont know any-
thing about the experiences of slavery in
United States hear something and connect
to it, Toppin said. Thats why we want this
project to help the new generation answer
this question.
The recital of the songs specifically writ-
ten for the project will be held tonight and
Saturday.
Were a couple of generations from slavery
but were trying to keep and find a new con-
text for spirituals, Toppin said. Were trying
to find a new way for the new generation to
look at the history of African-Americans that
doesnt always come from popular music.
Toppin and Lister are internationally
known sopranos, and both are also mem-
bers of the National Association for Negro
Musicians.
The project began more than a year ago
when Toppin and Lister commissioned com-
posers to respond to poetry related to the
African-American experience.
This whole journey was a process for us
as this is not how music is normally created
for opera singers, Toppin said. Usually we
tell the composers what were looking for, but
this is one which they get to figure out what
poetry they think would fit us.
Among the songs the duo will perform
are a slave narrative and a poem inspired by
a fan letter to Lister.
Because we commissioned the composers,
we can work together with them, Lister said.

An amendment to the
Interfraternity Councils constitu-
tion requiring each fraternity to
undergo a University-approved
sexual assault and violence preven-
tion program at least once every
two years takes effect this fall.
And over the course of the next
two years, all members of IFC fra-
ternities will be trained.
Though fraternities are allowed
to participate in any University-
approved program, One Act
training is preferred, said Aaron
Bachenheimer, director of the
Office of Fraternity and Sorority
Life and Community Involvement.
One Act is a skills training
program aimed to equip stu-
dents with intervention skills to
prevent violence.
Kenan Lee Drum, president
of the Interfraternity Council,
said the IFC acted independently
of the University and student
government when it adopted the
amendment in February.
Though student government
was not the driving force behind
the passage of the amendment,
Student Body President Andrew
Powell said he collaborated with
the IFC Executive board during
his campaign.
He also discussed the amend-
ment in his platform.
From the beginning it was led
by the IFC, and I acted more in a
supportive role, Powell said.
Powell said he saw the passage
of the amendment as a big oppor-
tunity for fraternities to be proac-
tive in trying to address violence
on campus.
He said in the past few years
he had seen some breakdowns in
communication and collabora-
tion between fraternities and the
rest of campus.
As a member of Chi Psi frater-
nity, Powell found himself in a
good position to build a positive
relationship between the IFC and
student government.
This is something that in the
realm of violence prevention
within the Greek culture I would
be uniquely positioned to bridge
some of the gaps between the
fraternity system and student
government, he said.
The mandatory training has
only been extended to fraterni-
ties in the IFC, but Powell said he
would be open to working with
other groups who wish to take
the same initiative.
Back when this was first craft-
ed, you approach things from the
community youre in, he said.
Drum said every IFC executive
member and those on the Greek
Judicial Board had participated in
One Act training before the pas-
sage of the IFC amendment.

Reinforcing North Carolinas identity
as a political swing state, the number of
state voters identifying as Democrats has
dropped from 49 percent in 2008 to 42 per-
cent in 2014.
That solidifies the states reputation as
a swing state that could be just as easily
swayed by Republicans, who hold 41 per-
cent of the states voting population, accord-
ing to an Aug. 27 poll released by Gallup.
The poll illustrates the tight race for North
Carolinas U.S. Senate seat, where incumbent
Kay Hagan faces a tough re-election bid
against N.C. Speaker of the House Thom
Tillis.
In 2008, 49 percent of North Carolinians
identified as Democrats, while 39 percent
identified as Republicans.
Michael Bitzer, a professor of politi-
cal science at Catawba College, said in an
email that there is more to the poll than
Democrats losing their position as most
favored in North Carolina.
What Gallup doesnt explain is that prior
to 2008, North Carolina was considered
very Republican at the presidential level,
with George W. Bush winning the Tar Heel
state by 12 percentage points in 2000 and
2004, Bitzer said.
Bitzer added that while President Obama
did win the state in 2008, he won by a 0.4
percent margin, which could be attributed
to an anti-Bush reaction.
Ferrel Guillory, a UNC journalism profes-
sor and director of UNCs Program on Public
Life, said that much of the 2008 Democratic
lead was caused by the presidential election
and Obamas presence in the race North
Carolina itself is still a swing state.
The underlying reality is that this state
is neither majority Republican nor majority
Democratic, Guillory said. We have a lot of
independent voters so its a very competi-
tive and closely contested state.
Bitzer said the important part of a polls
results is what candidates do with the informa-
tion: getting base supporters to vote or focus-
ing on independents who may not vote at all.
The state Republican and Democratic
parties did not respond to multiple requests
for comment.
The Gallup poll also revealed that among
North Carolinians, job approval for Obama,
confidence in their state legislature and
confidence in their economy trailed the
national average.
Guillory said general public disap-
proval of the state legislature will aid Hagan
against Tillis, but he said Congress also con-
tinues to have low approval ratings, which
Tillis will be able to use against Hagan.
Hagan wants this campaign to be about
North Carolina, about discontent with the
legislature (and) the large shift in action
the Republicans enacted in the legislature,
Guillory said. Tillis wants to focus on dead-
lock in Washington and discontent with
Obama.
Bitzer agreed that the focus on unaffili-
ated voters would drag both candidates
jobs records into the debate.
Who are those independent voters more
likely to be mad at: Washington or Raleigh?

Legos teach building blocks of engineering careers
By Hannah Webster
Staff Writer
When Sam Parker was 3 years old, he discov-
ered Legos, toy bricks that brought him hours
of entertainment throughout his childhood.
Now a freshman biomedical engineering stu-
dent at N.C. State University, Parker hopes to
pursue a career in neuroprosthetics. Now chil-
dren in Chapel Hill will have the opportunity to
develop those same problem-solving skills.
Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation is intro-
ducing a Lego Teacher Workday Workshop
in October. Catering to children ages 7 to 12,
the workshop will cost $34. The Play-Well
TEKnologies program will challenge partici-
pants to explore concepts in physics, engineer-
ing and architecture through problem-solving
activities and allows them to explore engineer-
ing through play, just as Parker did as a child.
While he cant say his interest in Legos
directly affected his career path, Parker can
see ties between his interest in Lego construc-
tion and his interest in engineering.
I think it allowed me to have an outlet for
my creativity and take thoughts and ideas that
I had in my head and then turn those into
something that was concrete, Parker said.
Alex Pearce, the North Carolina area man-
ager for Play-Well TEKnologies, said this pro-
gram only uses Legos, which sets them apart
from other problem-solving programs.
Instructors guide the children, but the pro-
grams goal is to promote creative exploration.
Our hope is to inspire the next generation
of engineers, Pearce said.
Parkers mother, Kathy Parker, said her sons
fascination with Legos helped her to realize
his ability to build and problem-solve.
I do know this about Sam, he was always
very aware of spatial relationships, she said.
Building things not just drawing them but
the tactile experience of building them and
moving them around, was very important for
him to understand how things are put together.
Kathy Parker said if the program had been
available when her son was young, she would
have considered enrolling him.
Theres no way that you can replace the
experience of building something, she said.
Jennifer Coffman, associate director
for training and research at the Center for
Developmental Science at UNC, said play can
often lay the groundwork for important skills
such as negotiation and problem solving.
Children can learn both knowledge and strat-
egies of how to approach science, Coffman said.
While a program might introduce a child to
engineering, Coffman said science exposure does
not necessarily cause students to be interested in
engineering as a career. And Kathy Parker said
while Legos gave her son an outlet, she doesnt
know if his hobby affected his choice in major.
Did Legos inspire that? Truly hard to know,
she said. Did it open a door? Absolutely.
Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation has part-
nered with Play-Well TEKnologies for summer
and spring break camps before, but this is the
first workshop intended for a teacher work day.
I will be interested to see how it pans out,
Pearce said. The other programs we have run
have been very popular so I have high hopes.

COURTESY OF PLAY-WELL TEKNOLOGIES
Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation partnered with Play-Well TEKnologies in 2013 to host a camp
called Jedi Engineering with Legos.Their first teacher workday workshop will be in October.
Steve Reznick, a UNC psychology professor,
said exposing children to science at an early
age could affect their future interest in science.
Perhaps what this would do for these
young people is show them that working with
materials in a way that is fun but that is also
systematic can be very productive, he said.
The workshop will take place at the Chapel
Hill Community Center on Oct. 27. Pre-
registration is required.
Pearce said he hopes to create fun, educa-
tional moments.
I see a lot of value in the exploration of
instilling creativity and instilling engineering
and architectural principles instead of follow-
ing step-by-step instructions, he said.

NCAAs top conferences gain power
By Pat James
Assistant Sports Editor
Power everyone wants it,
but only a select few can have it.
And on Aug. 7, the NCAA
Division I Board of Directors
voted 16-2 to grant the univer-
sities in the five most powerful
conferences the ACC, Big
12, Big Ten, SEC and Pac-12
the power to create their own
rules and legislation, cement-
ing their top-tier status.
The autonomy granted to
the so-called Power Five
will allow them to make rules
within 11 areas, including
cost-of-attendance stipends
and recruiting restrictions for
student-athletes.
These changes will allow us
to continue to prioritize how to
better address the needs of our
institutions, athletic programs
and, most importantly, our
student-athletes, said John
Swofford, the commissioner of
the ACC, in a statement.
Areas that fall outside of
the new autonomy include
transfer policies and restric-
tions on scholarships.
But an override vote is still
possible, and if 75 schools from
outside the Power Five vote to
override the decision by Oct.
6, the legislation would be sent
back to the board.
Jay Bilas, an ESPN college
basketball analyst, said he
highly doubts the ruling gets
overturned due to how much
the schools outside of the
Power Five rely on competing
against big-name schools.
The real test would be the
override vote, Bilas said, but
I think it will get through that,
because so many of the schools
are now legitimately fearful
of the threat of major change
that would put them in a total-
ly different sphere in Division
I basketball that theyre will-
ing to go along with this.
The 64 universities that
compose the five conferences
(along with Notre Dame, who is
independent) can submit their
own legislation by Oct. 1 and
have it adopted at the January
2015 NCAA convention.
A new 80-member vot-
ing panel, compiled of the
65 schools and 15 current
student-athletes, and the con-
ferences themselves determine
whether new rules are passed.
There are two ways for the
Power Five to pass legisla-
tion. A rule requires either 60
percent of the votes from the
voting panel plus three of the
Power Five conferences, or 51
percent of the votes and votes
from four of the conferences.
UNC Director of Athletics
Bubba Cunningham said with
this sort of power comes great
responsibility.
My concern is where
autonomy is going and where
it will lead us, Cunningham
said. Theres value in creating
rules for those 65, but we need
to be pretty sure were accu-
rate when we make decisions.
The conferences outside
the Power Five can adopt the
same legislation, but they will
be limited in doing so due to
fewer resources.
According to Cunningham,
the first matter of business for
the Power Five appears to be
offering full-cost-of-attendance
stipends for athletes, which
would cover the rest of expens-
es outside of scholarships.
The NCAA Division I
Board of Directors passed leg-
islation for such stipends in
2011, but it was shot down by
the NCAAs full membership.
Cunningham said full-cost-
of-attendance stipends are
vital to the University, but they
also pose some difficulties.
The cost-of-attendance
will allow us to provide more
resources to students to partici-
pate in sport, so I think thats a
good thing, Cunningham said.
Finding those resources and
allocating those equitably will
be a challenge.
While some speculate that
many schools outside the
Power Five wont be able to
afford the same stipends due
to limited financial resources,
American Athletic Conference
Commissioner Mike Aresco
said the schools in his confer-
ence can hold their own.
We dont have their finan-
cial resources, and were not
claiming we do, Aresco said.
But we can deal.
The new autonomy mea-
sures have the potential of
causing the competitive and
financial gaps to grow between
the Power Five and the confer-
ences outside of them.
But Bilas said even with
the new autonomy the Power
Five has, the current disparity
in talent between the schools
and conferences is large
enough already.
I think the chasm is gigan-
tic now, because theres no
limit on what the schools can
spend to attract players, Bilas
said. And when you cannot
provide anything to procure
talent, but your resources are
an issue in attracting talent
basically providing amenities
to attract them then the
advantage is always going to
go to the Power Five.
But Aresco said he believes
the recent performances by the
schools in his conference (for-
merly the Big East Conference)
should be enough for the
How to pass a rule under the new autonomy
In order for a rule to pass, three out of fve conferences plus 60 percent of the representatives, or four out of fve conferences plus 51
percent of the representatives mustapprove the measure.

to be mentioned in the same
breath as the Power Five.
We just won two national
championships in basketball,
and you dont do that if youre
not a power conference. And
we won the Fiesta Bowl in con-
vincing fashion when we beat
the Big 12 champion, Aresco
said. So our feeling is we are a
Power Six conference ... Power
should mean youre a powerful
conference that you win and
youre competitive.
The new autonomy permit-
ted to the Power Five comes
at a time when the NCAA has
been heavily under fire for its
treatment of student-athletes.
A lawsuit regarding student-
athletes receiving compensa-
tion in exchange for schools
making money off their image
and efforts by Northwestern
University football players to
unionize could shake up the
landscape of college sports.
Bilas said these recent devel-
opments influenced the boards
decision, but more work still
needs to be done.
I think all of these challeng-
es the NCAA is facing have lit
a fire under everyone that they
need to make some changes,
Bilas said. I think the changes
they are making are largely
stopgap, compromise changes,
and if they had done this 30
years ago, maybe it wouldve
been acceptable.
Sun Belt Conference
Commissioner Karl Benson
said the new autonomy will
improve the life of student-
athletes, and the decision made
by the Board of Directors was
made with them in mind.
At the end of the day,
Benson said, I hope these
changes will definitely have
an impact and an effect
a positive effect on all
student-athletes.

UNC line prepares for blitzing Aztecs

By Max Miceli
Senior Writer
They dont have a front
seven. They have a front six.
San Diego States base defense
includes only three defensive
linemen and three linebackers.
But dont let that fool you.
This front six will do more
to test the North Carolina
football teams young offen-
sive line than most teams who
play with seven in the box.
With a slew of creative
blitzes, Aztec coach Rocky
Longs defense will look to
confuse a Tar Heel offensive
line that doesnt have a single
senior member on Saturday
in Kenan Memorial Stadium.
Their strength is theyre
very quick, they play extreme-
ly hard and they swarm to
the ball, UNC offensive line
coach Chris Kapilovic said.
If you let it get in your head
and you start getting hesitant,
theyre going to get a lot of
negative plays.

Rocky Long hes going
to do a great job, especially on
that defensive side of the ball.
It will be chaos on that side of
the ball, Coach Larry Fedora
said. If its anything like hes
ever been in the past, hes
moving guys around, theres
all kinds of exotic blitzes and
different coverages. So it will
be a test for us in that way.
The Tar Heels might lack
experience on the offensive
line, but as Fedora noted, one
thing they dont lack relative
to the Aztecs is size.
Of San Diego States six
starting defensive linemen
and linebackers, the heaviest
is Senior Dontrell Onuoha,
weighing in at 290 lbs.
On the other hand, UNCs
two lightest offensive line-
men, sophomores John
Ferranto and Lucas Crowley,
both weigh 290 lbs.
With that size, Kapilovic
said the key for the Tar Heels is
just trusting their system.
Our guys have to be very
disciplined in our scheme
and trusting the guy next to
them, and just doing your job,
Kapilovic said. Once you start
worrying about other people,
that can be catastrophic.
The answer for the Tar
Heels might come by keeping
the ball out of the air and put-
ting the ball on the ground.
While the Aztecs have the
ability to bring a high-pressure
pass rush, San Diego States
rushing defense has been aver-
age, surrendering 3.7 yards per
carry and ranking 55th in rush
defense in 2013. In their game
against Liberty, UNC ran for
208 yards.
For quarterback Marquise
Williams and the Tar Heels,
the answer will come with
pace. And lots of it.
Its not going to affect us.
Were going to affect them,
Williams said about the Aztecs
blitzing schemes. Once we get
the tempo going, theyre going
to have to go to a base defense.
Womens soccer feeling the heat
By Logan Ulrich
Staff Writer
With over 750 wins to his
name, womens soccer coach
Anson Dorrance doesnt seem
to be one for moral victories.
But thats exactly the term
he used for the No. 14 North
Carolina soccer teams scoreless
draw Friday with No. 1 UCLA.
Let that sink in. A man,
who has known almost noth-
ing but winning, spent much
of his time after practice
Thursday excusing a draw.
That just shows the current
state of UNC womens soccer.
The Tar Heels, who take on
No. 7 Penn State today and
No. 18 Arkansas Sunday, cur-
rently have a 1-2-1 record, with
a win against Ohio State in
the Carolina Nike Classic. The
team lost eight starters from
the 2013 season six to the
pros, two to injury while an
additional two starters sat out
the teams 1-0 loss to No. 11
Pepperdine Sunday.
Six underclassmen now
start, while several others play
significantly. The new-look Tar
Heels have been a mixed bag.
Theyve struggled offensively,
only scoring once in four
games, but have played bet-
ter on defense, with only two
goals allowed on the season.
Right now the strength
of our team is the defense,
Dorrance said. Every girl
pressures and puts heat on the
other team to make it difficult
for them to come forward.
The summer may be wind-
ing down, but the heat wont
stop for the Tar Heels. So far,
UNC has played three of the
top 11 teams in the country
and has five more games
against top 25 teams.
Despite the rigorous sched-
ule, Dorrance has avoided
game-planning specifically for
upcoming opponents. With
such a young team, he wants
to emphasize correcting the
problems his players have con-
trol over and teaching them to
play within the scheme.
Right now were just focus-
ing on us, said senior defend-
er Satara Murray. I think
if we focus too much on the
teams that were playing, were
going to not really have any
idea what we have to focus on.
Although UNC is always a
dangerous team, the pressure
of a tough schedule and a raw
team might not add up to suc-
cess this season. But even if the
crucible of the season melts the
Tar Heels, Dorrance has forged
22 national title teams during
his time at UNC.
If the past is any indica-
tion, this team could be cast
into No. 23.

DTH PICKS OF THE WEEK
The DTH sports staff and one celebrity guest compete to pick the winners of
the biggest ACC and national college football games each week.
Were baaaaaack.
And were also a week late. College foot-
ball games stareted this past weekend, but
because of our in-depth look at UNCs upcom-
ing season aka the football tab we
dropped the ball on picks.
You could say were off to a great start.
Each week, the editors and senior writers
of the DTHs sports desk, along with one
guest picker, will submit their predictions
for the winners of the weekends biggest
matchups.
Some play it safe, others take chances. And
this week is no exception.
But before we get into this weeks picks, we
should probably let you know that in the 2013
season, the guest picker won the competition
and put all of us to shame.
Thats not going to happen again.
Reigning runner-up Aaron RonDodson is
coming out of the gates with an insane upset
pick, taking the Hokies on the road over No. 8
Ohio State.
No one else is doing that, Ron. No one.
But everyone is picking UNC over San Diego

Murray State and Alabama over Florida Atlantic.
Literally everyone.

County given grant to renovate affordable homes
By Pat James
Assistant Sports Editor
Orange County is taking a
small step to increase afford-
able housing in the area.
The Orange County
Housing, Human Rights and
Community Development
Department was recently
awarded $170,000 by the
North Carolina Housing
Finance Agency to assist
with its 2014 Single-Family
Rehabilitation Program,
according to a press release.
The programs purpose is
to help renovate moderately
deteriorated homes owned
by lower-income residents,
assisting with repairs, such as
roof and door replacements.
Renee Holmes, the depart-
ments housing programs
coordinator, said the program
improves homes and makes
them more energy-efficient.
Well, with this program,
the goal is to take houses that
are about 30 years old, maybe
some older, and extend the
life of the house, Holmes
said. We will also put energy-
efficient Energy Star appli-
ances in the house to make
them more energy-efficient.
Residents qualify for the
program if their household
income is below 80 percent of
the area median income and
the household includes a resi-
dent who is disabled or over
the age of 62.
For Orange County resi-
dents to be eligible, they must
have an annual income of
$36,800 or less for a single
person or $42,050 for a two-
person household. The appli-
cation process began Tuesday
and ends Oct. 31.
Robert Dowling, executive
director of the Community
Home Trust, said the growing
number of rental properties in
the Chapel Hill area has played
a major role in the increasing
need for affordable housing.
Its gotten worse over the
years because theres so much
pressure on rental housing,
particularly in places close
to downtown, he said. And
rents go higher and higher
and higher, and regular work-
ing people cant afford those
escalating rents.
Alderman Randee Haven-
ODonnell, of the Carrboro
Board of Aldermen, said shes
interested in seeing how the
program affects the people in
the Section 8 housing designed
to help low-income families,
the elderly and the disabled
afford private housing. Several
Orange County apartment
complexes stopped accepting
Section 8 vouchers this year.
Haven-ODonnell said the
number of students who end
up living in Carrboro has
impacted the cost of housing.
The low-income families
and the elderly often dont
have the opportunity to get
into the housing because
owners have rented them to
students, and that is a prob-
lem for us, she said.
About 17 percent of Orange
County residents fell below the
poverty level between 2008
and 2012. That number largely
mirrored the states 16.8 per-
cent rate, according to data
from the U.S. Census Bureau.
County Commissioner Earl
McKee said the countys pov-
erty rate motivated the com-
missioners to provide financial
incentives to organizations
looking to increase affordable
housing in the county.
McKee said he and the rest
of the Orange County Board
of Commissioners will further
address the lack of afford-
able housing with the start of
the new term, which began
Thursday.
We are acutely aware of the
need for affordable housing in
Orange County, he said. We
are aware that Orange Countys
housing prices have driven this
to an extent, and were working
to try to address it.
New chancellor chosen to transform Elizabeth City State
By Sarah Brown
State & National Editor
The UNC Board of
Governors on Thursday
tapped a new chancellor for
Elizabeth City State University
as system leaders look to turn
around the troubled campus.
Stacey Franklin Jones was
elected during a special board
meeting at the SAS campus in
Cary. Jones will begin Oct. 1.

The samples submitted for
comparison included oral
swabs, said Josh Mecimore, a
spokesman for the Chapel Hill
Police Department.
None of the samples have
been found to match the DNA
profile of the offender, the
police statement said.
And people have declined
to submit a DNA sample,
Mecimore said in an email fol-
lowing the press conference.
In a profile of the killer
released in January 2013,
Chapel Hill Police and the
FBIs Behavioral Analysis Unit
said the killer might have been
familiar with Hedgepeth and
lived near her in the past.
The person might have
also made comments
about her in the past, and
his behavior might have
changed after the murder.
The person would have been
unaccounted for during the
early hours of Sept. 7, 2012.
Police said Thursday the
investigation has spanned
outside of North Carolina.
Blue said the smallest
information could lead to a
break in the case.
With the publics help
we can bring some peace to
Faiths family, some closure to
the UNC community and the
Chapel Hill community, Blue
said. Since Sept. 7 2012 a killer
has been on the loose and has
not been held accountable.

Hedgepeths father, also
pleaded for someone to come
forward with information.

to use the money to go to the
retreat this fall. When she
learned the funds wouldnt
roll over to the fall, she asked
for about the same amount in
August, but encountered a very
different atmosphere.
Lets just say there was
never a gavel before. That was
intense, she said. This time,
my heart was racing, and I was
really nervous. They cut me
down on things that I didnt
think they were going to cut
me down on.
Philips $4,373 request was
cut to $2,222, and committee
members suggested sending
only 10 members to the confer-
ence and having them teach
their friends.
Philips was able to appeal
the cut to the full body Student
Congress meeting Tuesday, and
Congress restored the amount
of money for the retreat.
Title V, the financial sec-
tion of the Student Code of
Governance, includes strict
rules about how much student
government can give for travel,
lodging and publicity. Many
groups ask for money to cover
plane tickets only to find that
theyll be reimbursed just 14
cents per mile traveled.
Groups often see money for
food cut, which Title V man-
dates except for food-based
groups, said Joshua Aristy, the
committees chairman.
This week Aristy permit-
ted Honor System Outreach,
a branch of student govern-
ment, to use money for food at
its events, a decision that was
debated in the full body meet-
ing but ultimately approved.
Both King and Philips
thought that though the pro-
cess can be difficult, it would
be worse if it were run by
administrators.
I feel like pretty much
everybody gets an opportunity
to get to know some of the
student government members,
King said.
Aristy advised to always
prepare for the worst case.
Youre not going to get all
the money you want, he said.

Foster also said she thinks
the construction in the quad
is a positive sign of the invest-
ment the University is mak-
ing to ensure the safety of its
students.

Foster said she is sure the

While she hopes the infor-

will encourage people to come

graduated in May, said shes
worried police waited too long.
The waiting game is not
fun, Wood said. When you

couple of months, or every
year, you have to find new
things out, its like reliving the
whole day all over again.

do everything to bring Faith
Hedgepeths killer to justice.

expect you to come in, but if
you dont, we ll catch you.

Police had released little
information about the case
before this summer, when

Ancient Indian dance arrives at UNC
COURTESY OF CAROLINA PERFORMING ARTS
The ancient Indian art form Yakshagana will be featured tonight as a part of the performance series
Streams of Spirit: Water Music from South Asia. It will be hosted by Carolina Performing Arts.
YAKSHAGANA
Time: 8 p.m. tonight
Location: Memorial Hall
Info: http://bit.ly/1wb7vTC
By Paige Hopkins
Staff Writer
Audience members will be
transported to ancient India
from their seats in Memorial
Hall tonight.
Artist Vidya Kolyur will per-
form Yakshagana, an ancient
South Indian art form, as part
of a performance series, enti-
tled Streams Of Spirit: Water
Music From South Asia, hosted
by Carolina Performing Arts.
Kolyur is the only woman
in the world to lead a Yak-
shagana team.
Afroz Taj, professor in
UNCs Asian studies depart-
ment, is responsible for bring-
ing Kolyur to CPA. Through
the Arts@TheCore initiative,
Taj was able to curate the mini
series and invite Kolyur.
Yakshagana is an art form
that has been around for 700
years. The performances are
stories taken from Hindu
epics and include dancing,
singing and acting.
Yakshagana is a genre of
dance of ancient dance
drama, Taj said. It has
very thrilling music, upbeat
rhythm. Its very lively.
Aaron Shackelford, Mellon
post-doctoral fellow for CPA,
said this performance will
allow students to learn some-
thing they wouldnt be able to
in a classroom or lecture hall.
All students and faculty
across the University can
really gain something that
you cant teach anywhere
else from attending our per-
formances, talking to artists
and having experiences with
world class artists really only
Carolina Performing Arts
can bring to the campus,
Shackelford said.
Shackelford called Kolyur
a trailblazer because of the
strides she has made as a
woman in a male-dominated
art form.
Its an opportunity for
students to learn about a
700-year-old artistic tradi-
tion, he said. I think the
artistic piece as well as
Carolina Performing
Arts will host the
performance tonight.
Vidyas work in the field are
really important for students
to appreciate.
Joel Richardson, CPA
marketing manager, said the
curatorial program is a great
way to bring new art forms
to UNC.
A part of the fellowship is
to allow these University pro-
fessors to show expertise in
other cultures, in other areas,
especially art, he said. So
this is a very special opportu-
nity for Carolina Performing
arts through the Arts@
TheCore program.
He said access to such
expert performances is ben-
eficial to UNC students.
The beauty of it is that
students are able to have
world class performers right
here on campus for a $10 stu-
dent price, Richardson said.
Shackelford said students
in attendance might be sur-
prised at the connections they
make to their own lives dur-
ing the performance.
It talks about conflict, talks
about love, talks about rela-
tionships, all types of conversa-
tions students can have in their
classrooms and their personal
lives, to be honest, he said.
This is a great artistic
experience for them to make
those connections and be at
first unfamiliar, but I think
as they see the performance
they ll really find a lot of con-
nections to their own studies
and their own lives.

Durham startup moves to Chapel Hill
Youth Digitals new
venue will have more
room for clientele.
By Sofia Leiva
Staff Writer
Preparing to educate future
creators, the technologi-
cally gifted are joining Chapel
Hills entrepreneurial scene.
Youth Digital is a
Durham-based technology
education company that
has turned the pastime of
gaming into an educational
experience. Through online
classes and after-school pro-
grams, students ages 8
to 14 learn to create their
own video games, apps and
other programs.
Due to an increasing
demand for more classes, the
company has moved from its
original location in Durham
to Chapel Hill. The new space
includes six classrooms, a film
studio and 3-D printers.
Everyone is able to con-
sume technology, but we want
to teach kids who can build
their own apps, said Ryan
Perlowin, assistant director of
summer programs for Youth
Digital.
The move kind of allows us
to reach more students here.
Youth Digital is just one
of the many startups that
have found their way into the
Chapel Hill area.
Chapel Hill is attractive
to startups for two main rea-
sons: a thriving, diverse and
educated population plus
access to young, energetic
talent, said Patrick Vernon,
executive director for UNCs
Center for Entrepreneurial
Studies, in an email.
Jim Kitchen is the
founder of 1789 Venture
Lab, an incubator that sup-
ports students and other
entrepreneurs in Orange
County with resources such
as money, meeting space
and mentorship. He said the
entrepreneurial spirit of the
Triangle is revolutionizing
the way UNC classes are
being taught.
It is amazing even in the
last five years how across
campus the curricular
offerings have changed,
Kitchen said. Its all very
entrepreneurially driven,
and its fascinating to watch,
so much so that the music
department has its own
incubators.
Chapel Hill incubators
including LaUNCh Chapel
Hill, 1789 and The Cube
house 142 startup businesses
in total.
But there wasnt always
venture fever in Chapel Hill.
I was a student back in
Carolina in the 80s, back
when entrepreneurship
wasnt super hot. I started
a company when I was an
undergraduate, but it wasnt
nearly as much of a startup
community as it is now,
Kitchen said.
Its changed dramatically
during the last five years.
He said an education-
inspired passion for change
has influenced the startup
movement in Chapel Hill.
I think there is also a notion
that students are taught at the
University that they can make
a change, that they can specifi-
cally affect change, and thats
a great thing because they
believe they are empowered to
drive this change themselves,
Kitchen said. Thats incredibly
powerful.
That passion for change is
what continues to inspire the
growth of Youth Digital.
Since it was founded in
2010, Youth Digital has
reached more than 15,000
children in 70 countries. The
companys online classes
have had the greatest influ-
ence on its growth.
Perlowin said 80 percent
of Youth Digital students are
enrolled in online courses.
Online business is scaling
really, really quickly, he said.
Whatever we do, it all
comes back to the fact that we
want to teach and inspire this
new generation of creators,
Perlowin said.
Youth Digital will host a
grand opening party at 7 p.m.
today at 311 Providence Road.

The Banff Mountain Film Festivals Radical Reels Tour arrives at the Varsity Theatre tonight.
By Sarah Vassello
Senior Writer
Whitewater kayaking,
downhill biking and rock
climbing might be considered
too high-adrenaline for the
average person.
But the Banff Mountain
Film Festivals Radical Reels
Tour, arriving at the Varsity
Theatre tonight, shows that
while the sports might be
extreme, the people who do
them are not theyre just
passionate.
The tour, sponsored by
National Geographic and
produced by Canadas Banff
Centre, was founded in 2004
as an expansion of the festivals
Radical Reels night. Started as
a way to share high-adrenaline
adventure films, the Radical
Reels Tour now visits stops
in Canada, the United States,
Australia, Germany and
Mexico throughout the year.
The specific films selected
for this years Radical Reels
Tour really start to get into the
heart of the athletes and why
theyre doing these sports,
said Radical Reels road war-
rior Charla Tomlinson, who
travels with the tour to answer
audience questions and ensure
a quality production at each
stop. She said out of 350 sub-
missions from filmmakers
each year, 10 to 11 are chosen
based on the highest adrena-
line rush and most captivating
experiences.
The Chapel Hill-Carrboro
community is familiar with this
tour the Varsity showing of
Radical Reels will be hosted by
Chapel Hills Great Outdoor
Provision Company for the
third year in a row, showcasing
the enthusiasm for high-adren-
aline sports in the Triangle.
The last two years were
both sellouts, Varsity owner
Paul Shareshian said. I think
its going to easily be a sellout
again this time.
The UNC Tramping Club
attended the screening last
year.
Its really fun to be able to
experience it with people who
share your interests, senior
and co-president Cheney
Gardner said. Its a really
cool community who comes
out because its a relatively
niche film tour, even though
tons of people love it.
Chad Pickens, manager of
the Great Outdoor Provision
Company, attributes the
popularity of the showings to
a passionate community of
outdoor aficionados.
When I leave this film, I
always feel inspired I always
want to get outside and travel,
and I hope thats what our
customers will feel as well after
they see this film, he said.
Tomlinson said audience
inspiration is a key reaction
after watching the films.
We hear a lot of stories
about people who have decided
to leave the general pace to
pursue the things that they
love, she said, and thats
quite a common theme in our
film festival as well. All of the
people on the screen are doing
what they love.
But Gardner expressed a
simpler hope for the film: help-
ing connect those who might
want to take the next step.
People probably see these
things on the screen and go,
Thats so cool, I would really
like to go whitewater kayak-
ing, she said. There are a lot
of people who love this and
want other people to fall in
love with it, too.

Gas and Duke

Dominion Resources
to build the $5 billion
Atlantic Coast Pipeline to
transport natural gas from
West Virginia into North
Carolina. The project will
begin in late 2018, pend-
ing regulatory approvals.
Should the project be
approved, North Carolina
will have abandoned its
commitment to renew-
able energy sources and
left its land vulnerable
to questionable environ-
mental practices.
Natural gas distribu-
tion lines emit methane,
a greenhouse gas 25
times more potent than
carbon dioxide, into the
atmosphere. And natu-
ral gas distribution lines
have been shown to leak,
according to a study
by the Environmental
Defense Fund and
Colorado State University.
The Hill reported in
April that drilling in
Pennsylvanias Marcellus
Shale, the source of the
proposed pipelines meth-
ane, was found to emit 100
to 1,000 times more of the
greenhouse gas than the
Environmental Protection
Agency had anticipated.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT
The DTHs Drama 160
coverage is off-base
TO THE EDITOR:
I ask myself and now I
ask you: Why the contin-
ued speculation/insinua-
tion about Drama 160 and
Drama department admis-
sions? The Daily Tar Heel
has questioned members
of the DDA faculty and the
Senior Associate Dean for
Undergraduate Education
regarding the number of
student athletes in Drama
160 and all answer that
there is nothing untoward
about the enrollment.
There is no agreement
between the DDA and any
other entity on campus
about how and to whom
the class will be taught.
While much of the dis-
cussion in your pages on
athletic/academic issues has
been thought provoking, the
prolonged discourse about
Drama 160 seems intended
only to provoke. The com-
ments following the article
demonstrate that not only
are your readers tired of
the topic but that there are
misperceptions about the
nature of the course and
aspects of the department.
Your unremitting pur-
suit of finding something
amiss with Drama 160 will
continue to net you noth-
ing. There is, however real
news on campus I know
I would appreciate reading
it in your paper.

Unpasteurized milk is
not seriously unsafe
TO THE EDITOR:
I am writing in response
to yesterdays published con-
tribution regarding raw-milk
cheese being served at the
School of Public Health. The
idea that raw milk cheese
threatens public health is
difficult for a Frenchman
to take seriously; ask us to
pick between democracy,
cheese or smiles, and next
thing you know well have a
frowning King Louis XIV in
Versailles, enjoying the finest
Camembert.
I could make the (poor)
argument that I have never
seen raw-milk cheese
cause an illness back in
the Old World, but I invite
the author to consider the
following (better) points
instead. First, given the
prevalence of pasteurized
cheese-related hospitaliza-
tions, and keeping in mind
they likely represent a frac-
tion of all hospitalizations
from dairy products, is the
FDAs 13 times figure for
raw milk enough to consti-
tute a health concern?
Furthermore, bear in
mind that while certain
bacteria are harmful,
microbes also flavor and
digest our food for us, and
they could be dealt with in
a more nuanced way than
blanket pasteurization.

EDITORIAL CARTOON By Ngozika A. Nwoko, Chapman & Hilligan, nnwoko@live.unc.edu
I woke
up like
this:

B
eyonces performance at
this years MTV Video
Music Awards was
impressive. In a tightly cho-
reographed 16-minute routine,
Queen Bey slayed nearly every
track from her self-titled 2013
visual album, aka the great-
est surprise in the history of
recorded music.
So why am I feeling jaded?
I love and respect Ms.
Knowles-Carter as an artist and
cultural figure, but cant help
feeling overwhelmed by the
prevalence of Beyonce worship.
From the post-VMA tweet
Having a true moment right
now is this what it feels like to
see a divine being in person?!
to another with a photo of Blue
Ivy captioned: When you real-
ize your mama is God so you
lowkey Jesus, the Beyonce wor-
ship is shifting from laughable
to ridiculous. Even a Saturday
Night Live sketch entitled
The Beygency satirized the
prevalent belief that critique of
Beyonce is un-American.
A UNC student unwilling to
speak openly for fear of retri-
bution denounced the rise of
Beyonces cultural clout.
I seriously did used to like
Beyonce, he said in a text mes-
sage. Now, whenever I hear
that shes performing at awards
shows, I just get annoyed
because I know that whatever
she does, people will be like
OMGGGGG QUEEN B JUS
SLAYEDDD.
The backlash is imminent,
from murmurs of divorce to the
of course sometimes st go
down when its a billion dollars
on an elevator Solange/Jay Z
family fight after the Met Gala.
My fears stem from the
natural arc of life: the rise and
fall of icons. From the Roman
Empire to Britney Spears,
nothing gold can stay.
Culturally, we regard celebri-
ties highly, then immediately
disdain them at the first sign of
fallibility. Worse, we sometimes
use the very same traits form-
ing their likeable personas to
facilitate their downfall. Lady
Gaga, once esteemed for her
avant-garde contributions to the
pop scene, became too arty.
Taylor Swift, lauded for her
transparent depiction of female
adolescence, is now criticized for
her juvenile songwriting. In the
world of the pop diva, sustain-
ability is an impossibility.
All of this means little to
the genuine Beyonce fan who
appreciates her vocal prowess
and emotional range. These
traits wont die. Her talent is
inherent. But for those who
feel culturally obliged to bow
down, the Reign of Yonce is
coming to a quick end.
In her 2013 autobiographical
HBO documentary Life is But
a Dream, Beyonce shares with
us her genuine self. In many
scenes, she wears minimal
makeup and speaks candidly
of struggles both personal and
professional. Her intent is to
expose viewers to the truth of
celebrity: Its a facade.
The greatness of being an
artist comes from mistakes,
from having the courage to
embrace the machinations of a
flawed and fickle mind. Viewing
an artist as infallible breeds
insurmountable expectations.
Downfall is inevitable.
In my favorite track from
her self-titled album, Beyonce
admits, No, Im not an angel
either, but at least Im trying.
All we can and should do is
commend the fruits of her effort.

But for distribution
pipelines, the EPA has no
power to enforce an emis-
sions recommendation.
Instead, the responsibil-
ity of avoiding leaks from
the pipeline falls into the
hands of the local distri-
bution company in this
case, Duke Energy and
Piedmont Natural Gas.
Such companies are also
responsible for financing
the repairs.
As more natural
gas players enter the
game, the likelihood of
the public forming an
organized effort against
this pollution shrinks.
According to The
(Durham) Herald Sun,
the Chapel Hill Town
Council refused in July
to take action on an offer
from Crimson Holdings
Cooperation for the min-
eral rights to a tract neigh-
boring the Meadowmont
development. If the
council accepted Crimson
Holdings offer, the cor-
poration would have had
unregulated permission to
drill on this tract or sell it
to another drilling firm.
Roger Stancil, the Town
Manager, was wise to
ignore Crimsons request
to meet with a town attor-
ney to discuss land acqui-
sition. Officials in towns
along I-95, which runs
parallel to the pipelines
proposed route, should
conduct assessments of
public opinion and envi-
ronmental impact and
present them during the
permitting process.
Proponents of the pipe-
line argue its construc-
tion would create jobs
and attract natural gas-
related industries to North
Carolina. But any con-
struction endeavor would
create jobs and build
industries. Why invest in
dependence on natural gas
when North Carolina could
sustain and develop its
leadership in solar energy?
In 2013, North
Carolinas rate of growth
in solar energy capacity
ranked third in the nation.
In addition to the prudent
work of nonprofit projects
such as Solarize NC, the
Renewable Energy and
Energy Efficiency Standard
pioneered requirements
for utilities to produce at
least 12.5 percent of their
electricity using renewable
resources. Furthermore,
a project geared toward
solar upkeep sustains three
times more jobs than that
of natural gas, according
to a report authored by
the Union of Concerned
Scientists.
State officials should
prioritize the sustainable
growth of North Carolinas
energy base instead of
creating short-sighted
infrastructure plans that
further the states depen-
dence on fossil fuel.
A proposed pipeline
undermines state
leadership in solar.
I
t will come as a surprise
to no one that college-
aged students vote less
frequently than members
of their parents generation.
This tendency is particu-
larly pronounced during
midterm election years.
In 2012, more than half of
North Carolinians between
the ages of 18 and 29 voted.
In 2010, less than one
fourth of the same cohort
cast a ballot.
Yet 2014 is not a mid-
term like any other. This
year, forces largely outside
of students control are con-
spiring to make it harder
for them to vote. To defend
their franchise, their educa-
tion and their futures, it is
imperative that students
vote in November.
Younger voters are less
acculturated in the habits
of voting and tend to be
comparatively uninformed
about the state and local
issues up for vote during
midterm cycles. But North
Carolinas Republican
Party does not seem con-
tent to let these forces do
their natural damage on
youth turnout.
This November, thanks
to the GOPs new voter
ID law, which was osten-
sibly intended to reduce
the imaginary problem of
voter fraud, students will
have fewer opportunities
to vote early and will not
be able to benefit from
same-day registration,
straight-ticket party vot-
ing, out-of-precinct voting
or pre-voter registration.
The final change is
particularly galling. In
the past, North Carolina
allowed 16- and 17-year-
olds to register to vote,
but no longer. In a healthy
democracy, voting is a right
and is encouraged as a
compelling state interest.
While the infamous
requirement that all voters
possess a government-
issued identity card will not
go into effect until 2016,
these changes have been
more than sufficient to sow
confusion among the stu-
dent body. Some students
think they cannot vote if
they lack the ID; others
mistakenly believe that they
are barred from voting if
they are from out of state.
It strains credulity to con-
tend that state Republicans
did not anticipate their
reforms would obfuscate
students rights and sup-
press turnout.
Nor does Raleigh have a
monopoly on this malfea-
sance. This summer, the
Orange County Board of
Elections voted along party
lines not to extend Sunday
voting hours, despite
hearing ample feedback
from students, working
class voters and congrega-
tions, all of whom said
they would benefit from
expanded weekend voting.
Disparaging students
for their ignorance and
lack of political involve-
ment is easy; sacrificing a
partisan advantage for the
sake of democracy would
be extraordinarily diffi-
cult. Students should not
hold their breath waiting
for their elected officials
to see the light. Instead,
they must proactively
work to get themselves
registered and get to the
polls come November.
